In Tune’s specially curated mixtape, including Gorecki’s Totus Tuus, the Ayoub Sisters’ toe-tapping arrangement of Uptown Funk and a trip to Spain with Tarrega’s Adelita.

In Tune’s specially curated mixtape; 30 minutes of musical delight and discovery. Tonight’s mix travels from Miles Davis’s take on Gershwin’s ‘It Ain’t Necessarily So’ – to the snap of the first movement of Vivaldi’s Bassoon Concerto in E minor. On the way, the jaw-dropping dexterity of Katia and Marielle Labeque with their spin on Joplin’s ragtime classic, ‘Maple Leaf Rag’, a trip to Spain with Tarrega’s delicate ‘Adelita’, as well as The Ayoub Sisters’ toe-tapping arrangement of Mark Ronson’s ‘Uptown Funk’.
